Happy Monday, everyone. The start of a new working week means a new episode of Tour Issue, and we're here to recap Fitzpatrick's win in Dubai, Rory's 7th Order of Merit win, Adam Schenk's one-handed putting chaos, and Nelly Korda's under-the-radar iron switch. Why can't Fitzpatrick quit his old Ping irons? Has Rory found a new best friend in Qi4D? And has Rory's 2025 been the best year of golf in the modern era since the Tiger Slam? All of that and more answered this week!

Thanks for your positive feedback on our first episode of Tour Issue last week - we really appreciate it. We're still working on how to structure this show every Monday, so any feedback is most welcome. We want this show to reflect what you'd like to hear us discuss on Tour, so do get in touch if you have any burning requests (we do read everything!).

Happy Friday, folks, thanks for downloading. This week, there's an update on Joe's vobesman set, we call out wedge manufacturers and plead with them to stop over-designing their wedges, Joe pines for Robert Rock (again), and we go through some of the best-looking irons of the '80s and '90s after a listener wanted to know what set he should be for his own vibesman set.

We also welcome Adrian Retiveld back onto the show to chat all things equipment from one of the best fitters in the professional game. We unearthed this interview from our time in California at The Kingdom in the summer, and it's a wide-ranging interview about Adrian's life on the Tour van and some of the most interesting experiences he's had with players on the Tour. Thanks for your kind words on the first episode of Tour Issue, which dropped on Monday. We'll be back next Monday with much more of the same - enjoy!

Welcome to the first episode of Kick Point: Tour Issue, your weekly roundup of the weekend's Tour golf and equipment breaking news stories. We couldn't have asked for a more exciting week to bring you our first episode, with new equipment from TaylorMade, Ping and Cobra being seeded on Tour far earlier than we expected. We have our first impressions of all these new clubs and react to Aaron Rai's stunning playoff win in Abu Dhabi. How fitting that, on a week with so much new equipment, a man with a six-year-old model goes and wins big - we love you, Aaron.

It's our first Tour Issue, so feedback on our new weekly episodes will be much appreciated. You know where to get in touch! We'll be back on Friday with our normal weekly episodes of Kick Point: The Golf Gear Show.
